[Hook x2]
I take my city everywhere that I go
So when you see me you then already know
It’s on my hat, you can tell by the clothes
It’s in my talk, so It’s in my flow

I take my city everywhere that I go!

[Crooked I]
I’m from the E-A-S-T-S-I-D-E, ride with me
East sider long beach
R-T-C and I-C-G
O-M-G and Y-M-C
Owin’ me I’m C-O-B
Ima take my clique to the T-O-P on G-O-D with B.o.B
Tell by the hat, you could tell by the tat, you could tell how I act, you could tell how I rap that I represent the L-B-C
M-A-P we back on the map
M-A-P mean Money And Power
Uh-huh we back on the mapCan’t be poor son, no Nordstrom, but its racks on racks
S-A-T put me to the test
No tutor, and glutted cause the future gone show you who the best
This is how I view success
Givin’ you my music, yes
Stepped on stage in Budapest
Made em all salute the west!

[Hook x2]
I take my city everywhere that I go
So when you see me you then already know
It’s on my hat, you can tell by the clothes
It’s in my talk, so It’s in my flow

I take my city everywhere that I go!

[Crooked I]
In the Chi-town, I’m keeping it G from the get go
Windy city killers, man they shootin’ when the wind blow
From Oklahoma to New York, I rep my kinfolk
Thought I was in the six-four, nope. I’m in that Enzo!
When I’m in Houston, that purple stuff is in my purple cup
When I’m in Miami, I’m in South Beach with my circle, uhh
When I’m in Atlanta, my fans be grabbing them camerasThen I’m in out in Detroit with my G, Royce, And them D boys
In every single hood, I’m so hood that I think I’m good
South Central, Hawthorne, Gardena, Compton, Watson, Englewood
Places that I’ve been to
Look at my clothes when I’m mobbin’ throughLaker purple, dodger blue

[Hook x2]
I take my city everywhere that I go
So when you see me you then already know
It’s on my hat, you can tell by the clothes
It’s in my talk, so It’s in my flow

I take my city everywhere that I go!
